A Jewish girl is the best choice as Jesus in the school play, but will tradition and family politics bring the curtain down early? Written by Pulitzer Prize-winner Donald Margulies, Coney Island Christmas features two of the most hilariously inept holiday school pageants ever and a universal tale of what it means to be an American at the holidays. Projections from the 1930s Brooklyn, plus Christmas carols played in traditional Jewish klezmer style by the Klez Katz of Seattle, add rich texture to this delightful production.
